Cardiomemo recording

Cardiomemo recording is a non-invasive way of monitoring your heart's activity. It involves placing a device next to your heart whenever you feel symptoms. Wearing it will help allow your doctors to monitor your heart and diagnose any problems.

Cardiomemo recorders are devices, about the size of a mobile phone, that record your heart's activity. They are particularly useful for patients who have intermittent symptoms that last for a minute or more as you can carry the machine around with you without any attached wires. There aren't any leads attached to your chest.

It is important to make sure you have the recorder with you at all times so you can discretely place it on bare skin on your chest when your symptoms happen.

Cardiomemo recording is usually requested by a consultant following a consultation to try and gather more information about you and any symptoms you're experiencing.

We pride ourselves on our clinical excellence, you'll be looked after by an experienced multi-disciplinary care team.

A fixed price for this treatment may be available on enquiry and following an initial consultation.

You can trust Spire Manchester Hospital to provide you with a single, fixed price (1) so there are no surprises. And, through our carefully chosen partner (2) you can even be considered for interest free finance.

(1) Important: Please read Spire Healthcare's terms and conditions for full details of what’s included and excluded in your fixed price* when paying for yourself.

Our patients are at the heart of what we do and we want you to be in control of your care. To us, that means you can choose the consultant you want to see, and when you want. They'll be with you every step of the way.

All of our consultants are of the highest calibre and benefit from working in our modern, well-equipped hospitals.

Our consultants have high standards to meet, often holding specialist NHS posts and delivering expertise in complex sub-speciality surgeries. Many of our consultants have international reputations for their research in their specialised field.

You will attend the hospital on the day of the test where your consultant or a technician will explain the procedure and how to use the recorder. They will tell you where to place the recorder on your chest and how to take a recording.

You will then return the recorder to the hospital as directed. A report will then be sent to the doctor who requested the test.

Your treatment may be adapted to meet your individual needs, so it’s important to follow your consultant’s advice. It's natural to feel anxious before hospital treatment, but knowing what to expect can help. Please raise any concerns or questions with your consultants or nurse so you feel comfortable and in control. We're here to help every step of the way.

You will be able to leave hospital after picking up and returning your cardiomemo recording device. The hospital will explain how long you need to wait before returning the recorder and the doctor who requested the test will arrange a follow-up appointment to discuss the results with you. If anything out of the ordinary is found, we offer integrated medical care.

We are committed to delivering excellent individual care and customer service across our network of hospitals, clinics and specialist care centres around the UK. Our dedicated and highly trained team aim to achieve consistently excellent results. For us it's more than just treating patients, it's about looking after people.
